Guild Wars 2

My first try at illusion knitting! Original Charr artwork by ArenaNet, knitting chart made by myself. Basically, illusion knitting is a technique that makes the knitted pattern (or image) invisible when viewed from the front, but it will start to appear if viewed from the side.

After finally seeing the project completed, I am mostly happy with it, but I see there are some ways in which I can improve my chartmaking. A complex subject such as this will read better if I remove stray pixels/stitches or group them in the larger color area to make them either stand out or disapper completely. Also, the midtones don’t read quite as well as I thought they would, so they might need some extra dark edging or accents.

Still, overall, I really like the way it turned out! From start to finish, I worked on this for a year and a half, on and off.

Finished size: 117×85 cm
